GeneProf Web Services

11-29-2012, 08:28 AM

Hi folks,

we've just launched a range of new RESTful web services for retrieving and analysing data from the GeneProf databases (http://www.geneprof.org). GeneProf is a web-based tool for the analysis of RNA-seq and ChIP-seq data and is coupled with a database of ready-analysed datasets. Using the web services it is possible to programmatically dig into these data and retrieve sequences, genomic data, information about gene expression and regulation and the like.

The web services are all described under:

http://www.geneprof.org/GeneProf/webapi.jsp

I've put up a whole lot of examples including use-cases in Perl, Java, Taverna, Galaxy and the UCSC and IGV genome browsers.

We're really keen to get some feedback on the web services (bug reports, suggestions, ideas!) and would love to post up some user-submitted examples, too!

Thanks,
-Florian

Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems

by SEQadmin2

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival

by SEQadmin2

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

by GATTACAT

Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
